One of our bonus room windows has this wierd effect - looks like a smoke ring is stuck between the panes. I think it means the gas or whatever in the middle has gone - the windows is approx 5 foot by 3 foot in size. anyone know approximate prices for windows?

Approximate price is $300, but that's just for the window: you'd have to install it yourself.

A couple of years ago, I had a 60" x 60" casement window replaced by Lux Windows in my second-floor bedroom and the total was $1200. That involved removing the decorative shutters on the outside, replacing the trim on the inside, etc. My window was similar to this $500 Jeld-Wen window from Lowe's, but larger:

My windows in this room (bonus room) have these white bars on them. I have no idea why they are like that. Are they security bars?

They look like that but this is a 2nd story window.

Those bars are strictly decorative.
